This approach has generated studies in Information Systems (IS) since 1990, however few studies have examined the use of this approach in the e-government area. Thus, this paper aims to broaden the theoretical approaches on e-government, by presenting ANT as a theoretical framework for e-government studies via published empirical work. For this reason, the historical background of ANT is described, duly listing its theoretical and methodological premises. In addition to this, one presented ANT-based e-government works, in order to illustrate how ANT can be applied in empirical studies in this knowledge area. %G English %Z TC 8 %Z WG 8.5 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01636465/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01636465/file/430312_1_En_15_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01636465 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01636465 %~ SHS %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC8 %~ IFIP-EGOV %~ IFIP-WG8-5 %~ IFIP-LNCS-9820
